1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From
time to time, we may become involved in lawsuits, investigations and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business.
On June 15, 2023, two individuals (the “Plaintiffs”) filed
a complaint in the U.S. District Court, District of Nebraska naming the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiary, Titan Energy Systems, Inc.,
and an individual acting in his capacity as an employee of the Company, collectively as defendants. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint
on July 7, 2023 alleging negligent driving, negligent entrustment, and negligent hiring, training and supervision, as a result of a car
accident that occurred on September 9, 2019 involving the Plaintiffs and the individual. According to the amended complaint, the Plaintiffs
are seeking special damages related to the injuries sustained by Plaintiffs. On July 27, 2023, the defendants filed an Answer to Plaintiff’s
Amended Complaint. On October 6, 2023, a mediation was held, but the parties did not reach a settlement. The parties are in the beginning stages of the discovery process and are working to schedule a settlement conference
before the end of 2023.
As
of the date hereof, we are not aware of or a party to any other legal proceedings to which we or any of our subsidiaries is a party or
to which any of our property is subject, nor are we aware of any such threatened or pending litigation or any such proceedings known
to be contemplated by governmental authorities that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition
or operating results.
We
can give no assurance that any other lawsuits or claims brought in the future will not have an adverse effect on our financial condition,
liquidity or operating results.
We
are not aware of any material proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates or any registered or beneficial shareholder
of more than 5% of our common stock is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.
